Statistics on Personal Independence Payment Mandatory Reconsiderations can be found in published statistics in data tables 7A and 7B of:

These statistics relate to normal rules claims (i.e. excluding special rules cases for the terminally ill), and are for both new claims and Disability Living Allowance (DLA) reassessment claims.
